Thanks for the comments and views - much appreicated! Yeah I hope Marvel do an announcement soon - they've driving a lot of Nova fans mad speculating what's going to happen in the new "duo" series - though I really hope the idea of Rich being the new "Worldmind" to Sam isn't they way he comes back - that would be a major let down - both Nova and Nova Prime deserve equal status!

Equal? One of them is the Nova Prime. There is no equal

Joking aside, I agree for Rich to be the Worldmind would really suck.
